Much could be made of the cocktail's namesake, and, with a bit of effort, much can be made of the tomato-based cocktail itself. So why do we so often find generic product wearing this historically provocative moniker If we wanted a routine drink, we'd order a screwdriver. We want a work of art. The folks at the Delano...
